The DATEDIFF function[^] should be sufficient for your requirement.

E.g.
select DATEDIFF(DAY, @date1,@date2)

Hi ,
Check this

SQL

declare @t1 nvarchar(10)
set @t1 ='1/1/2010'
declare @t2 nvarchar(10)
set @t2 ='1/3/2010'

select datediff(DAY,convert(datetime, convert(char(10), @t1,110)),convert(datetime, convert(char(10),@t2, 110)))

There is no built in function to do that, you will have to write your own. I suggest you start by looking at this: http://forums.asp.net/t/1439809.aspx/1[^]
